This service agreement is between you, the Chick-fil-A franchised Restaurant Operator, and Foundry Local, Inc. Throughout this agreement, the term "you" and "your" refers to the Operator agreeing to this service agreement. "We", "our" and "us" refers to Foundry Local, Inc. "Foundry Local, Inc." refers to Foundry Local, Inc., or its affiliates and subsidiaries. "Chick-fil-A, Inc." refers to Chick-fil-A, Inc., or its affiliates and subsidiaries. We may modify these Terms at any time so be sure to check back regularly. By continuing to use the service after these Terms have changed, you indicate your agreement to the revised Terms.

A. What is the Operator Website Service?

 

The Operator Website Service provides a website and online tools to help you promote your restaurant. With the service, you can manage various kinds of content on your website via an easy-to-use web-based administrative tool, subject to Chick-fil-A, Inc.'s trademark and brand guidelines.

​​

The service has been designed to be easy to use, and online help and support tools are available within the online administrative dashboard.

B. Service Fees and Terms

The Operator Website Service agreement is between you, the Operator, and Foundry Local, Inc. By completing the sign-up process, you are agreeing to pay an annual service fee of $1,195 to us for the service.

Upon activation of your website, you will be emailed an invoice for $1,195 to be paid by credit card 30 days net. If payment is not received within 30 days of receipt of invoice, your Operator Website Service may be turned off until payment is received.

This service agreement shall be in effect for one year (365 days) from the date your Operator Website Service goes live (the "Initial Service Term"). The Initial Service Term may be renewed for additional one-year (365 days) periods by payment of the annual service fee (each a "Renewal Service Term," and collectively with the Initial Service Term, the "Service Term"). At least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the Service Term, Foundry Local will send you an invoice for the next Service Term. You may renew this Service Agreement by paying the annual service fee within thirty (30) days of receipt of this invoice. If payment is not received within forty-five (45) days of receipt of invoice, your Operator Website Service may be turned off until payment is received.

If you relocate and establish a new franchised Chick-fil-A Restaurant business, your Operator Website Service goes with you. We will turn off the site for your previous franchised Restaurant and launch a new one for your new franchised Restaurant. There is no fee for such a transfer.

Should your Operator Agreement terminate, or you choose to no longer have the Operator Website Service before your one-year service has expired, we will simply turn off your service. In such situations, no portion of your service fee will be refunded.
